bzr 1.6rc4 available

Written for Bazaar by John A Meinel on 2008-08-19

Written for Bazaar by John A Meinel on 2008-08-15

I'm proud to announce the release of the 3rd candidate for becoming bzr-1.6. There have been lots of updates since 1.5, you can see the various changelogs here:

https://launchpad.net/bzr/1.6/1.6rc3
https://launchpad.net/bzr/1.6/1.6rc2
https://launchpad.net/bzr/1.6/1.6rc1
https://launchpad.net/bzr/1.6/1.6beta3
https://launchpad.net/bzr/1.6/1.6beta2
https://launchpad.net/bzr/1.6/1.6beta1

I would just like to highlight that this release includes the ability to stack branches without copying all of history. Also, the windows standalone installer now includes TortoiseBzr as a way to provide an interface that feels more natural on windows.

If there are no regressions found in rc3, it will become 1.6-final on August 21st.

Many thanks to everyone who contributed to this excellent release.
